Just opened my copy. IOTA results table stinks. Good job it is online.

The Island single op mixed does not show scores and no sections detail
qsos/multipliers. Someone tell me where Lee is in there (Apart from in the
trophies list).

BTW Thanks Lee for posting the 2128 CW results, good job as usual.

Just been reflecting on the current Radcom. Generally better than of 
recent with some good amateur radio and related electronics topics 
covered. I still wonder though why we need to have 4 pages devoted to 
Aviation Radio. Whilst in itself is probably an interesting topic, I 
feel the connection to real Amateur Radio a little tenuous. The other 
thing I noticed was in Member's Ads which featured a photograph of a GPS 
unit. Trying to get underneath the reason for that one. Three scenarios 
come to mind : a) Only this advertiser requested a photograph to be 
added, b) The editor thought the readers wouldn't understand what a GPS 
system is, c) This was the only bit of kit the Editor recognised!  Also, 
I wonder what an A35 beam looks like? An Austin car? A Tongan? A road?
